3:00pm Panel - "What is itWorth? Establishing Fine Art Values"
In an art world awash in multi-million dollar works of fine art, both serious collectors and beginners are asking how art values are established, and what factors can or should come into play when considering the value of a work which you own or hope to acquire. How do contemporary artists establish their asking prices, and how do their prices increase over time? How are prices for 19th and early 20th century work established in the secondary art market? How do professional appraisers establish a value for a work of art? Why do we value art that impacts our lives and our sensibilities, and how we can find value in art in non-monetary ways?
